This gave the viewer the same basic story of the famous forest marauder, but added a few new wrinkles which made for a fresh look at an old tale. Many here in IMDB seem to not care for the Costner version, a film I still remember with great admiration, and compare it unfavorably with this translation. Me, I think they were both interesting and entertaining: I especially appreciated the differences in the two - never caring for a re-make which follows it's predecessor line for line. All Robin Hood fans should see this one.
